What Our Users Say

Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.

"For those technologically inclined, it is the best news app. Love it."

Rustam Nizam

"Best HN reader I've tried yet. Had one time where the app constantly crashed on launch, but was resolved by re-installing"

Nile Daley

"I like this app but it has started crashing immediately every time it launches, so I am unable to use it."

Matt Way

"Awesome! It would be cool to see the number of comments of each post next to its date too :D"

Ilya Orson Sandoval

"Apparently you can't authenticate with your HN account in this one. Works well if you want to lurk, but not if you want to participate."

Mathew Pinard

"Fails to load"

Cory Mathews

"This app is lovely for browsing Hacker News. You can't submit or comment, but that's not a problem for me. The app itself is very easy to use, and it's beautiful! I would give it 5 stars if it had a night mode or dark theme."

Joe Sweeney

"I really like the feel of this app, and it's lightweight, however every time I open an article I get "Unable to load article", while the comments load fine. How can I make it work?"

A Google user

"Super clean, works perfectly, and is only the bare features for reading articles and threaded comments. Don't expect to post or vote, though."

Josh Hawkins

"Better than all the rest."
